German Study and Cultural Immersion in Frankfurt

  Germany

Frankfurt

Term: Throughout the year 
Dates: Starts Mondays at least twice a month, all year round.

Description: Our school is located in one the most beautiful and elegant areas of Frankfurt, Sachsenhausen which offers many charming cafes; wine bars, boutiques and a vibrancy found nowhere else in the city.

Only 5 minutes walk from the school you can reach the banks of the river, half a dozen art galleries or museums, the charming high street of Sachsenhausen and the main underground stop "Schweizer Platz".

The center of Frankfurt can be reached by underground in about 10 minutes or you can take a stroll across the bridge and walk to the center in less than 20 minutes. For our lazy students, a taxi will take you five minutes and cost about 5 -7 Euro. On Saturdays the banks of the river are covered with market stalls offering the best bargains around.

Our school is housed in a large modern 8 storey building and owns two floors with excellent facilities. The ground floor area offers a large reception area which is also used as a social area for students relaxing between lessons or after class. It offers many cafe style tables with coffee machines. Our 16 classrooms are located on the upper floor (elevator or stairs available) and offer bright modern spaces in which to learn.

The furniture is new and the school has recently been renovated, offering a relaxed but professional atmosphere. Within a few steps of the school, there are several interesting pubs and cafes, this is truly a great location to study in!

Highlights: At first sight, Frankfurt-am-Main seems a bustling international metropolis. Thousands of traveler's pass through its airport daily, one of Europe's busiest, yet, Frankfurt is steeped in history, tradition, and the arts. Since the Middle Ages, Frankfurt-am-Main, which is located on the banks of the River Main, has been a crossroads for European trade and commerce and the official venue for imperial coronations. It has now developed into Europe's second largest financial center after London and is the home to the European Central Bank. However, business and trade is only one side of Frankfurt's amazing diversity, its story is just as impressive. Karl the Great resided here and this city is also the birthplace of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, the famous poet.
